Magnetic confinement fusion is based on the fact that ions and electrons cannot easily travel across a magnetic field. Therefore, hot plasma can be confined by strong magnetic fields. This approach is ...

Researchers at the University of Bayreuth have developed a method that makes objects on a magnetic field invisible within a particle stream. Until now, this so-called cloaking had only been studied ...

In recent years, great strides have been made in the fabrication of inorganic nanoparticles of desired size, shape and crystal structure. This synthetic control enables researchers to precisely ...

Magnetic tweezers are a versatile single-molecule manipulation technique that uses magnetic fields to apply forces and torques on magnetic particles attached to biological molecules, such as DNA, RNA, ...
